Acade~nics
COURSE NUMBERING SYSTEM
Wayne College, as a branch of The University of Akron, employs the course
numbering system of the University. University course numbers consist of 10
digits separated into three sets by a colon and a dash. The first digit represents
the name of college in which the course is offered, e.g., 3 = Buchtel College of
Arts and Sciences. The next two digits refer to the department within the college, e.g., 10 = Biology. The last zero is for administrative convenience.
After the colon the first digit in the second set represents the level of the course,
e.g., 1 = freshman, 2 = sophomore, 3 = junior and 4 = senior. Courses with a
beginning course digit of 5 or above may only be taken by graduate students.
The last two digits in the second set of numbers refer to the course name and
series, e.g., 11 = Principles of Biology, initial course; 12 = Principles of Biology,
second course.
The last three digits--after the dash--represent the section (day and time the course
is offered). The first digit will be either a 7, meaning the course is offered at the
Wayne campus or a 0, meaning the course is offered at the Akron campus. The
second digit, if it is between 0 and 7, means the course is a "day" course (8:00
a.m. to 4:00p.m.). If the second digit is a 8, it is an "evening" course (4:15p.m.
to 11 :00 p.m.). If the second digit is a 9, it is a Saturday course. The last digit
refers to the number of the section.

ASSOCIATE DEGREES
Wayne College affords the individual of any age or background the opportunity to
continue education without pursuing a bachelor's degree. First, the college offers
a program of general education designed to equip the student for intelligent living
and to meet individual needs and personal goals. (Please refer to the "General
education/Transfer Program" for further details on the Associate of Arts and
Associate of Science program.)
Second, the college prepares the student for entry-level positions or advancement
in selected paraprofessional and technical careers in business, industry, and public
service organizations.
Finally, Wayne College, as a branch of The University of Akron, supports where
feasible, the broad range of career education programs of the University's
Community and Technical College.
Associate degree programs typically require two years of full-time study or about
three-and-one-half years of part-time study and lead to the degrees of Associate of
Arts, Associate of Science, Associate of Technical Studies, Associate of Applied
Business or Associate of Applied Science (carrying the designation of the
program). A student may complete a program of study while working full or part
time. Moreover, since the associate degree signifies completion of an accredited
program of collegiate course work, credits earned at Wayne College may be applied
at a later date toward a bachelor's degree. However, acceptance and evaluation
of credits lie exclusively within the jurisdiction of the college/university to which
the student wishes to transfer.

further details.

Associate of Technical Studies
The Associate of Technical Studies (ATS) provides an integrated program of study
for those students whose educational objectives and interests cannot be met
through the college's formal associate degree programs. The Associate of Technical Studies permits students to combine various courses from two or more of the

other postsecondary institutions, and/or with training received through other educational enterprises.
The Associate of Technical Studies is administered through the Office of the
Dean and coordinated by the Interim Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Interested students must complete a formal Associate of Technical Studies application. Upon application, the Interim Associate Dean for Academic Affairs makes
an initial assessment of any transfer work and assists the applicant in selecting
relevant areas of study. The application is then forwarded for review by the
faculty most closely associated with the proposed area of study. Upon faculty
acceptance, the application is submitted to the Associate of Technical Studies
committee who, upon approval, forwards the application to the Dean of Wayne
College for final approval.
The following are the graduation requirements for the Associate of Technical
Studies:
•
•
•
•
•
Completion of an Associate of Technical Studies application specifying a
coherent combination of technical courses selectively drawn from two or

Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, relevant faculty, the Associate of
Technical Studies committee, and the Dean of Wayne College .

The University of Akron's Wayne College
GENERAL EDUCATION/
TRANSFER PROGRAM
Natural Science: 8 credits minimum At least two courses, one which must be a lab
A student seeking a bachelor's degree studies in the University College before
entering one of the degree-granting colleges of The University of Akron or transferring to another liberal arts college or university. While in the University College,
the student acquires a wide foundation of general knowledge; develops intellectual abilities and interests; clarifies academic, personal and occupational objectives; and selects curricula which will equip the student to enter a degree-granting
college prepared to undertake advanced work.

(Students in higher·level science courses with a lab may use those courses to meet their
General Education requirements.) Select one course from a minimum of two different sets.
For the undecided student, this is the time to take courses from several areas in
order to select a field most to their liking. In cases where the student is relatively
certain of transferring to an institution other than The University of Akron, close
contact should be maintained with an academic adviser so that the student's
course work at Wayne College is similar in nature to what is required at that
college or university. Questions regarding substitutions and relevance of Wayne
College courses to the student's program of study at another college or university
can be worked out through a cooperative effort by the student, the academic
adviser and the appropriate person at the college/university to which the student
will be transferring.
The General Education Program of The University of Akron is the core of courses
that provide the skills and knowledge considered essential for all graduates of the
University. The General Education Program is designed to ensure that graduates
will possess:
• the capacity for critical, independent thought;
• a personal sense of values, tempered by tolerance and a regard for the rights
of others;
• the ability to use language effectively as a medium of both thought and
expression;
• the analytical skills necessary to make sound qualitative and quantitative
judgments;
• the ability to describe and explain differences in civilizations and cultures;
• an understanding of the conditions that affect them as individuals and as
members of society;
• the capacity to evaluate intellectual and artistic achievements;
• a knowledge of science, technology, and mathematics and their effects on
human activities;
• a knowledge of positive mental and physical health practices.

OFFICE OF CONTINUING
EDUCATION AND WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT
The Office of Continuing Education and Workforce Development provides both
non-credit and credit programs. Services include Continuing Education and Customized Training for human resource development.
Continuing Education
Wayne College offers a variety of courses, seminars and customized learning
programs to provide educational opportunities for adults who want to upgrade
work skills, seek personal/professional development or certification, gain cultural
enrichment, or just want to have fun.
The college's noncredit, continuing education offerings are designed around such
areas as business management and leadership, professional certification and inservice, communications, computers, technical training, finances, languages, health
and recreation, arts and crafts, and general interest. Participants attending 75
percent of course instructional time receive a certificate of completion and Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The purpose of the CEU is to provide a measurable record of course participation in noncredit programs. Wayne College has also
been approved to offer continuing education hours for social workers and counselors, real estate agents, and health care professionals. Most courses are also
approved by the Ohio Department of Education for educational CEUs for teacher
recertification.
Call Wayne College for a listing of current offerings. Upon receipt, you may
register by telephone (Visa, MasterCard, or Discover only), by completing the
accompanying form and mailing it with your check to the college, or in person.
Wayne College is pleased to accept any suggestions for future courses or programs. If you have a course idea, or if you are interested in teaching a class,
contact Russell O'Neill, Director of Continuing Education at 330-684-8983 or toll
free 800-221-8308, ext. 8983.

Customized Training for Human Resource Development
Upgrading skills, down-sizing the work force, shifting management responsibilities, increasing quality standards--all of these strategies are efforts by business
and industry to remain competitive. However, these changes result in changing
job duties in the work place. Job tasks that remained constant for years are
suddenly changing. This requires management and workers to retool their skills
and broaden their knowledge.
The University of Akron - Wayne College assists companies with performance
problems through consultative and training services. Wayne College will assess
problems and arrive at an appropriate solution using a variety of techniques which
include training, job aids, environmental ch;mges, and selection.
We offer a wide range of services and provide qualified, experienced instructors
drawn from our own faculty, business, industry, and contract professionals. Programs can be held at your site or on the Wayne Campus.
For more information about customized human resource training contact Amy
Mast, Director of Training and Special Programs at 330-684-8982 or toll free
800-221-8308, ext. 8982.
Wayne College is an institutional member of the Ohio Continuing Higher Education Association and of the Learning Resources Network (LEAN).

ACADEMIC POLICIES
AND PRACTICES
Academic Action
A student who fails to maintain a grade-point average of 2.00 (C) is placed on
academic probation. Probation is a warning to the student that academic performance is unsatisfactory and that the student is in danger of being dismissed from
the college/ University. Continued unsatisfactory academic performance will result in dismissal. A student who has been dismissed from the college/ University
is not eligible to register for any credit courses until reinstated by the appropriate
dean. The student may, however, enroll for noncredit or developmental courses.
A student who has been dismissed and wishes to be reinstated must apply in
writing to the dean of the college from which dismissed.
Academic Reassessment
An undergraduate student who has not attended The University of Akron for at
least three calendar years and re-enrolls and maintains a grade-point average of
2.50 or better for the first 24 credits may petition the dean to delete from the
grade-point average those grades earned while previously enrolled at The University of Akron.
This policy applies only to the grade-point average. All grades remain on the
student's record; and in the determination of graduation with honors and the
student's class standing, all grades obtained at The University of Akron shall be
included in the grade-point calculation.
A student may utilize academic reassessment only once.
Attendance
Academic Honors
A student who has carried 1 2 credits or more without an Incomplete (INC) or In
Progress (IP) grade and obtained a grade-point average of 3.25 or better in the
previous semester is eligible for the Dean's List of Wayne College.
A student receiving the initial associate degree who has completed a minimum of
30 credits at The University of Akron and who has earned a minimum grade-point
average of 3.40 for all work taken is graduated with distinction, with high distinction if the overall average is at least 3.60 and with highest distinction if the
overall average is at least 3.80.
A student receiving the initial bachelor's degree who has completed a minimum of
60 credits at The University of Akron and who has earned a minimum grade-point
average of 3.40 for all work taken is graduated cum laude; magna cum laude if
the overall average is at least 3.60 and summa cum laude if the overall average is
at least 3.80.
Wayne College has a chapter (Alpha Zeta Chi) of Phi Theta Kappa, a national
honorary society for community and junior colleges. Phi Theta Kappa recognizes
the student who has demonstrated academic excellence as judged by the college
faculty. To be eligible for membership a student must have completed 24 semester credits and attained at least a 3.80 grade-point average.
Each student is expected to attend all class meetings for which registered. A
student may be dropped from a course by the dean if the student is repeatedly
absent and the instructor recommends this action; the student can gain readmission only with permission of the instructor and the student's dean.
Auditing
A student may audit a course. To audit a course, a student must be admitted and
indicate audit status at the time of registration. An audit request may be denied
if space is unavailable. The student pays the same fee as for credit enrollment
and may be expected to do all the work prescribed for students taking the course
for credit, except the writing of examinations. A faculty member may initiate
withdrawal for a student not meeting these expectations. An audited course may
be repeated for credit at a later date (see "Repeating Courses").
Student Life
31
Bypassed Credit
Disciplinary Action
Certain courses designated in The University of Akron General Bulletin by each
department enable a student to earn bypassed credit. A student who completes
such a course with a grade of "C" or better is entitled to credit for designated
prerequisite courses which carry the same departmental code number. Credit for
such bypassed prerequisites shall be included in the total credits earned but shall
not count in the grade-point average or class standing or credits required for
graduation with honors. Bypassed credit is not awarded on the basis of completing a course either credit- by-examination or credit/noncredit. For each course
awarded via this bypassed process, the recipient student will be assessed a fee.
Please consult an academic adviser for further details.
Continuation as a student of the college/University is dependent on the maintenance of satisfactory grades and conformity to University rules. The student is
expected to be familiar with rights and responsibilities as embodied herein as well
as in the General Bulletin and A-Book of The University of Akron. Copies are
available in the Student Services Office at Wayne College.
Credit-by-Examination
A student interested in earning credits by special examination may do so with the
permission of the dean of the student's academic college and the dean of the
college in which a particular course is offered and by payment of the Special
Examination Fee. The grade obtained in such an examination is recorded on the
student's academic record. Credit-by-examination is not permitted in the semester before graduation. Credit- by-examination may not be used to repeat for
change of grade.
Credit/Noncredit
The student who takes a course on a "credit" or "noncredit" (CR/NC) basis, and
who earns a grade equivalent of "A" through "C-" shall receive credit ("CR") for
the course and will have the grade, "CR", placed on their permanent record. The
student who earns a grade equivalent of "D + " through "F" will not receive credit
for the course and will have the grade "NC" recorded on their permanent record.
For the baccalaureate degree, no more than 1 6 credits of non-language courses
and no more than 20 credits in total, including language courses, is permitted to
be taken "CR/NC" basis. For the associate degree, no more than 8 credits of
non-language courses and no more than 10 credits in total, including language
courses, is permitted.
A student is eligible for the CR/NC option if the student has:
•
completed at least 50 percent of the work toward a degree;
• a grade-point average of 2.30 or better;
• the consent of an adviser.
The option to enroll for a course under the credit/noncredit option is available only
at the time of registration for the course. After the first week of the term or the
first two days of a summer session, the status can not be changed. The registrar
will notify the instructor of those students utilizing the CR/NC option by means of
the final class list.
Courses that can be taken on a CR/NC basis:
•
Distinguished Student Program
The Distinguished Student Program at Wayne College seeks to recognize, encourage and support excellence among exceptionally talented students completing
associate degrees at the college. All students who are pursuing an associate
degree at Wayne College, and who have completed 32 semester credits with a
3.40 grade-point average are eligible to apply.
Each student, along with their normal degree requirements, will complete a onecredit Individualized Study with a Wayne College faculty member. Additionally,
each student will complete a two-credit Distinguished Student Colloquium, which
has a variable interdisciplinary focus.
Participants who complete the program and degree requirements, and maintain a
3.40 or higher grade-point average are designated "Distinguished Students" upon
receipt of their degrees.
Drop, Add and Withdrawal
To add and/or drop a course or to withdraw from the college/University completely, a student is required to complete a Registration/Schedule Change form
and return it with the appropriate signatures to the Student Services Office. A
student may add a course with the signature of an adviser through the first week
of the semester. Thereafter, course additions require the signatures of an adviser,
the instructor(s) involved and the student's academic dean.
A student may withdraw from a course without an adviser's or course instructor's
signature through the 14th day of a semester or comparable dates during summer
session or intersession. After the 14th day of a semester, and up to the midpoint
of a semester, a student may withdraw from a course with the signature of an
adviser.
After the midpoint of a semester, a student must have the signature of both the
adviser and the instructor to withdraw. Such authorization must be dated and
processed through the Student Services Office no later than the last day of the
12th week of classes or comparable dates during summer session or intersession.
Refusal by either the adviser or the instructor to sign the withdrawal form may be
appealed to the dean of the student's college, who shall make the final decision
after consultation with the adviser or the instructor.
An approved withdrawal after the 14th day will be indicated on the student's
official academic record by a "WD." A student who leaves a course without
going through the withdrawal procedure will be given a grade of "F."
Non-attendance does not constitute official withdrawal.
one free elective course (not in major field) per term;
• any first- or second-year foreign language course at any time, regardless of
grade-point average.
Courses that can not be taken on a CR/NC basis:
• any General Education courses;
• courses required by colleges and departments of all undergraduate majors.
Courses for which "CR" is awarded will be counted as hours completed only;
courses for which "NC" is awarded shall not be counted as hours attempted; and
in neither case shall "CR" or "NC" be considered in calculating grade-point average. In both instances the course shall be entered on the student's official academic record.
A student may repeat a course for credit ("CR") or a grade ("A"-"F") after receiving a grade of "NC."
The student taking the course on a credit/noncredit basis is expected to meet the
requirements of the course as required by the instructor.
A student can not raise a grade through re-examination.
A student may be dropped from a course by the dean if absences are repeated and
the instructor recommends this action. A dismissed student may gain readmisSion only with the permission of the instructor and the dean. A student dropped
from a course receives an "F," which counts as work attempted whenever
grade-point calculations are made.

Grades
Graduation
At the end of each semester, the Office of the Registrar of The University of
Akron mails the semester grade reports to the student's home address: summer
grade reports are mailed for both summer sessions at the end of the second
summer session. The method of recording grades is based on a grade-point
system as follows:
In order to be graduated, a student seeking an associate degree from The University of Akron's Wayne College must:
Grade
A
AB+
B
BC+
c

The following grades may also appear on the semester grade reports or on the
permanent record; there are no quality points associated with these grades:
I - Incomplete: Indicates that the student has done passing work in the course
but that part of the work is, for good and acceptable reason, not complete at
the end of the term. Failure to make up the omitted work satisfactorily before
the final examination period of the following semester (not including summer
sessions) converts the "I" to an "F". When the work is satisfactorily completed
within the allotted time the "I" is converted to whatever grade the student has
earned. (If instructors wish to extend the "I" grade beyond the following
semester for which the student is registered must notify, prior to the end of the
semester they must notify the Student Services Office in writing of the
extension and indicate the date of its termination. It is the responsibility of the
student to make arrangements to make up the incomplete work. The faculty
member should submit the new grade to the Student Services Office by
completing a Grade Change Form.)
IP - In Progress: Indicates that the student has not completed the scheduled
course work during the term because the nature of the course does not permit
completion within a single term, such as work towards a thesis.
PI - Permanent Incomplete: Indicates that the student's instructor and the
instructor's dean have for special reason authorized the change of an incomplete ("I") to a permanent incomplete ("PI").
W - Withdraw: Indicates that the student registered for the course but
withdrew officially sometime after the second week of the term.
NGR - No Grade Reported: Indicates that, at the time grades were processed
for the present issue of the record, no grade had been reported by the
instructor.
INV- Invalid: Indicates the grade reported by the instructor for the course was
improperly noted and thus unacceptable for proper processing.
The accumulated grade-point average is computed by taking the total number
of grade points (determined by multiplying the number of credits of each course
by the number of points received) and dividing them by the total number of
credits attempted. For example: if a student has attempted nine credits and
has received a total of 27 grade points, his accumulative grade-point average
would be a 3.00 (B).
Grades determine whether a student is either eligible or ineligible to remain at
Wayne College and The University of Akron according to the grade-point value
of each grade for each course completed. A student must maintain a
cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.00 to remain "in good standing"
with the college/University. A student who maintains specified levels of
scholastic achievement receives privileges to participate in extracurricular
activities.
On the basis of grades, the student receives opportunities to take additional
courses which will accelerate academic progress.
A student should transfer from the University College to a degree-granting
college when the grade and credit hour requirements of that college have been
met. Acceptance for admission to a college depends on the approval of the
dean of the college which the student chooses to enter and on the student's
performance to date.
• File an application for graduation with the registrar of The University of Akron.
Applications are available through the Student Services Office of Wayne College. If you plan to complete degree requirements at the end of fall semester,
submit an application by May 15. If you plan to complete degree requirements
at the end of spring semester, submit an application by September 15. If you
plan to complete degree requirements at the end of summer sessions, submit
an application by February 1 5.
•
Meet all degree requirements which are in force upon entrance into the associate degree program.
•
Earn a minimum of 2.00 grade-point average as computed by the registrar for
work attempted at The University of Akron consistent with the repeating courses
policy. The grade-point average achieved at the time of completion of requirements for a degree will include repeated and reassessed courses which will be
used to calculate rank in class and honors.
•
Complete the requirements for a degree in not more than five calendar years
from the date of entrance into the program. In the event the student fails to
complete the degree requirements within five calendar years from the date of
transfer, the college/University reserves the right to make changes in the number of credits and/or courses required for a degree.
•
Earn the last 1 6 credits in residence at Wayne College/The University of Akron
unless excused in writing by the dean of the college in which the student is
enrolled.
• Complete a minimum of 16 earned credits in the degree total in residence at
Wayne College/The University of Akron.
•
If a student who has transferred from another institution wishes to present for
the major area of study fewer than 14 credits earned at The University of
Akron, written permission of both dean and head of the department is required.
•
Be approved for graduation by the appropriate college faculty, Faculty Senate,
and Board of Trustees.
• Discharge all other obligations to The University of Akron.
Student Life
Guest Student (Wayne College Students)
A Wayne College student may take coursework at another institution of higher
education as a guest student. The student must obtain written permission from
the dean of the college prior to enrolling for courses. These courses will be listed
on the University official academic record. Each course will reflect the course
number, title, grade, and credit value. No grade-point value will appear on the
record and no grade-point average will be calculated for the coursework listed.
The name of the institution will be listed on the record as well as the date that the
coursework was taken.
lntercampus/lntercollege Transfer
A student who wishes to transfer to the Akron campus of The University of Akron
but remain in their present college may do so by requesting the Student Services
Office to complete an Intercampus Transfer. The student's file will then be forwarded to the appropriate office at the University.
All students are initially admitted into the University College. Eventually it becomes necessary for each student to transfer into the Community and Technical
College (for associate degrees) or the College of Arts and Sciences, Engineering,
Education, Business Administration, Fine and Applied Arts or Nursing (for bachelor's
degrees). The process used to accomplish this is called an lntercollege Transfer.
For students interested in a two year associate degree, transfer into the Community and Technical College can be done upon the completion of 12 to 13 credits of
course work with an accumulated grade-point average of 2.00 or better in a
pattern of courses which clearly indicates a definite interest in a particular associate degree program.
The earliest a student pursuing a bachelor's degree may apply for transfer to a
degree-granting college is upon completion of at least 30 semester credits. The
student must also have at least a minimum 2.00 overall grade-point average.
These are minimum general requirements. Certain departments/colleges have
more specific criteria in addition to the above. Please consult with your Wayne
College adviser for more specific data and to initiate the necessary paper work.
Privacy
Each year, the University of Akron is required to give notice of the various rights
accorded to parents or students pursuant to the Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act (FERPA). Parents and students, under FERPA, have a right to be so
notified and informed. In accordance with FERPA, you are notified of the following:
Right to Prevent Disclosures
You have the right to prevent disclosure of Education records to third parties with
certain limited exceptions. It is the intent of The University of Akron to limit
disclosure of information contained in your Education Records to those instances
where prior written consent has been given for the disclosure, as an item of
directory information of which you have not refused to permit disclosure, or under
the provisions of FERPA which allow disclosure without prior written consent.
Right to Inspect
You have the right to review and inspect substantially all of your Education Records
maintained by or at The University of Akron.
Right to Request Amendment
You have the the right to seek to have corrected any parts of any Education
Record which you believe to be inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation
of your FERPA rights. This right includes the right to a hearing to present evidence that the record should be changed if this institution decides not to alter the
Education Records acording to your request.
Right to Obtain Policy
You have a right to obtain a copy of the written institutional policy adopted by
The University of Akron in compliance with FERPA. A copy may be obtained in
person or by mail from the FERPA Coordinator located in the Vice President of
Student Affairs Office.
Right to Complaint to FERPA Office
You have the right to file a complaint with the Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act Office at the Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue,
S.W., Washington, D.C. 20202-3887, (202) 260-3887, FAX: (202) 260-9001,
concerning any belief that you have that The University of Akron has failed to
comply with the provision of FERPA.
33
Release of Directory Information
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 permits The University of
Akron to release directory information about students. Directory (public) information includes the student's name, local (mailing) address, date and place of birth,
major field of study, participation in officially recognized activities and sports, the
student's photograph, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of
attendance, degrees and awards received, and the most recent educational agency
or institution attended by the student.
You can ask for Directory Information to be withheld. It would be withheld from
a variety of sources, including friends, relatives, prospective employers, honor
societies, and the news media. Careful consideration for the consequences should
be exercised before deciding to withhold directory information. If you do not wish
to have Directory Information released by the Univeristy or Wayne College, you
must complete a non-disclosure form to the Registrar's Office more than ten (10)
days prior to the starting date of the semester or summer session for your instructions to be effective for that semester or summer session. Forms are available in
the Student Services Office at Wayne College.
Repeating Courses
Any course may be repeated twice by an undergraduate student subject to the
following conditions:
To secure a letter grade (A-F) or a grade of NC, CR, or AUDIT, a student may
repeat a course in which the previously received grade was C-or below, AUD, or
NC. Registrations under the CR/NC option are subject to the restrictions in the
CR/NC policy.
With the dean's permission, a student may substitute another course if the previous course is no longer offered. Courses must be repeated at Wayne College or
The University of Akron.
Grades for all attempts at a course will appear on the student's official academic
record. Only the grade for the last attempt will be used in computing the student's
graduation grade-point average. All grades for attempts at a course will be used
in grade-point calculations for the purpose of determining graduation with honors
and the student's class standing. Finally, credit for a course or its equivalent will
apply only once toward meeting degree requirements.
Student Outcomes Assessment
The purpose of The University of Akron assessment program is to improve student growth in academic and social skills, student services, and the quality of
campus life. This process requires student cooperation. Students are expected
to participate in various assessment tests and surveys.
University Honors Program
The University of Akron's Honors Program is designed to recognize and to support
the highly motivated and achievement-oriented student in any major program. To
help the student discover potential capabilities and sense of direction, this unique
learning experience emphasizes a close student-faculty relationship.
An honors student is not required to complete the General education, except for
Physical Education/Wellness. Instead, each student completes an individualized
distribution requirement which includes a balanced amount of diversified course
work in the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. The major
objective of this requirement is to expose the student to a broad spectrum of
knowledge which is both reasonable and appropriate to the student's major field.
The requirements for admission to the Honors Program are:
• A high school grade-point average of 3.50 or better.
•
Scores on the SAT or ACT which place the applicant in the 90th percentile or
higher of freshman college norms in the field of interest.
• An interview with a member of the University Honors Council.
•
Enrollment in a baccalaureate degree program.
For information on admission procedures and deadlines, call the University Honors
Program (330-972-7966) or the Admissions Office at Wayne College (330-6832010 or 1-800-221-8308).

Academic Advising
Academic advising at the college is concerned with assisting the student in making the best possible decisions about academic life. The academic adviser is a
"generalist" and helps the student to select from available programs the one most
appropriate to abilities and interests, and to establish realistic academic goals in
terms of sensible credit loads, proper choice of courses, study habits, outside
workloads, and other circumstances affecting the student's academic life.
The adviser also serves as a reliable storehouse of information about program
demands and administrative procedures. The adviser possesses a thorough knowledge of the University community and its members and maintains a comprehensive and current awareness of developments and requirements in all University
programs.
The adviser is familiar with administrative procedures such as admission, registration, withdrawal from classes or the University, credit-by-examination, advanced
placement credit, intercampuslintercollege transfer, probation and academic dismissal. Finally, the adviser acts as a referral source for the student with specialized needs.
A student wishing to talk with an adviser simply stops in or calls the Student
Services Office at the college to schedule an appointment.
Bookstore
The Bookstore at The University of Akron-Wayne College is owned and operated
by the University of Akron. However, the Wayne College Bookstore is not affiliated with the Bookstore on the Akron campus, which is owned and operated by
Barnes & Noble of New York.
The primary purpose of the Bookstore is to serve students by providing books and
supplies required for credit and noncredit courses offered by the college. The
store also carries classroom supplies, computer software, greeting cards, T-shirts,
and other sundry items. The Bookstore is located just inside the Boyer Health
and Physical Education Center wing.
Upon entering the store, all books and packages must be deposited in the book
bins at the front of the store before entering the self-service area. The Bookstore
operates on the assumption that all books and supplies coming through the register are in the process of being purchased. The Bookstore cannot, however, be
responsible for any items left in the bins and suggests that, whenever possible,
books and materials be left in another, safer place.
Bring your class schedule when you come to the Bookstore. Textbooks are arranged on the shelves according to the university course numbering system. For
each course that uses a text book, a card is affixed to the shelf. Each card will list
the department, course, and section number (i.e., 7600:106-701) of the course
and indicate the book, or books, used in the course, and whether they are required
or optional.
Most books for courses will be in stock two weeks before classes start. This is
when the used book stock is highest. Buy your textbooks before classes begin in
order to avoid the rush, and better your chances of getting used books, if available, for your classes.
On the average, books and supplies for a full-time student will cost from $1 50 to
$350 per semester. Actual cost will depend on whether you can purchase used
texts for your classes rather than new copies, and your field of study.
If the Bookstore is out of a text needed for your class, read the tag on the shelf to
see if it is on order and the approximate due date. In all instances, you should fill
out a reserved book card with the cashier. The store will do everything possible
to get your texts to you as soon as possible. If you have any questions about
availability, talk to the staff.
Textbooks are held in stock until the completion of the fifth week of classes. You
must purchase all required texts by this date. Unsold stock is returned to the
publishefs after the fifth week.
To help reduce the cost of books, the Bookstore features a used book service.
Used books are purchased from many sources, including students on campus and
from other college stores throughout the country. Books thus purchased are sold
at reduced prices to students.
Refunds on textbooks may be obtained by the date printed on the bottom of the
receipt. A cash refund cannot be issued unless the following conditions are met:
The cash reg1ster receipt must be presented. No cash refunds are given without
the cash register receipt. Books must be in the same condition as when they
were purchased; new books must be unmarked. A 50 percent refund will result if
a new book is marked. Do not write in any new book until you are sure there is
no need to return it. Books wrapped in plastic must be returned unopened if the
publisher marks that the book is non-returnable if opened. The seal to disk packages must not be broken.
Defective copies of textbooks are exchangeable for perfect copies at any time. If
a course is canceled, return the book by the date printed on the receipt for a full
refund, providing all other condition are also met.
Personal checks are accepted as payment for books and merchandise provided it
is your own personal check, or that of your parents or guardian. The check
cannot exceed tl)e amount of your purchase by more than $5 .00. The check is to
be made out to the Wayne College Bookstore. Your local address, phone number,
and social security number must be in the upper left-hand corner of the check.
Money orders, travelers' checks, bank checks, VISA, MasterCard, and Discover
are accepted. Checks returned for insufficient funds or closed accounts will be
charged a $20.00 handling fee.
When paying by check or charge card, it is the customer's responsibility to make
sure checks or charge card forms are filled out clearly, correctly, and signed.
Failure to do this may result in an additional service charge.
Bookstore hours are flexible. Students should check for holiday or vacation hours
which may vary from the normal business hours. During the fall and spring semesters, the hours are: Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.;
Saturday, 9:00a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The Bookstore is closed on Fridays and Sundays.
Students should be especially watchful of their texts the first two weeks and the
last two weeks of each term. Unfortunately, stealing can occur on campus during
these periods. Once you have determined there is no need to return your texts to
the Bookstore, write your name in ink on the inside cover, and also on the same
random page of all your books. This will help the Bookstore identify your books
should they be stolen and offered for resale. The Bookstore cannot accept identification of stolen merchandise based on underlining and notations only. If you
do have textbooks stolen, file a report with campus police, and notify the Bookstore of the stolen items.
Book buy-back is held during the final exam week of each semester and summer
session. Guidelines for buy-back are as follows: No receipt is required. All pages
and the cover must be intact. Books purchased for resale in the store are purchased at 50 percent of the current new list price. Texts not currently used are
purchased at nationally recognized wholesale prices. These prices are significantly less than 50 percent of the new price. The Bookstore reserves the right to
limit quantities of texts purchased for resale to prevent overstocking certain titles.
The supply of used books is limited.

Boyer Health and Physical Education Center
Career Services
The John Boyer Health and Physical Education Center consists of a gymnasium,
weight room, two racquetball courts, locker rooms, and public restroom fac1llt1es.
These facilities are used by the college for physical educat1on/wellness courses,
intercollegiate athletic events, intra murals, and special events. The Orrville YMCA
also uses the Boyer facilities for community programming.
Wayne College offers students a variety of career planning services. Workshops
on career planning are scheduled throughout the year by the Office of Career
Services. These sessions help students explore and assess their interests, values, needs, and abilities as a first step toward establishing career goals. Individual career counseling sessions are also available. Students can sign up for
workshops and career counseling appointments in the Student Services Office.
All Wayne College students who present a current validated university identification card may use these facilities free of charge. The facilities are also ava1lable
on a rental basis by the general public.
Campus Police
The University of Akron's Wayne College provides the campus with two full-time
police officers. The police officer's are commissioned by the State of Ohio with
full law enforcement authority including powers of arrest.
The police officers enforce all state laws and the rules and regulations governing
The University of Akron. The police officers are also responsible for public safety
services such as crime reports, traffic accidents, parking complaints, and other
incidents requiring police assistance.
In addition to investigating criminal complaints, the police officers provide various
free public services to students including: escort service to the parking lots,
battery jumps, and vehicle lock-outs. If the complaint falls outside of the officer's
jurisdiction, the officer will refer the student or employee to the appropriate agency.
The police officers will also provide educational programs upon request to students and employees regarding personal safety and crime prevention.
In the absence of the campus police, students are asked to contact the Student
Services Office who will contact the proper authorities. If the Student Services
Office is closed, all telephones are equipped to connect with the 911 emergency
number.
The Career Resource Center (0-21 5) houses many reference books including the
Occupational Outlook Handbook, Occupational Outlook Quarterly, Dictionary of
Occupational Titles, and Peterson's Job Opportunities. There are many resources
on topics such as r~sume writing, cover letters, interviewing, job search strategies, career development, and career-related videotapes. Employer literature files
and information on academic majors can also be found in the Career Resource
Center.
SIGI PLUS is a computerized career guidance system which helps students decide
what types of careers would be best for them. It provides information on careers
such as job outlook, earning potential, and educational requirements. Other features of SIGI PLUS include sections on decision making, goal setting, preparing
for a career, and learning what types of occupations relate to specific majors.
Orientations are offered throughout the week for students who are interested in
learning how to use SIGI PLUS. Sign-up sheets are available on the door of the
Career Resource Center.
Placement assistance is available for students attending Wayne College. Individual appointments and workshops on resume writing and interviewing are offered to help prepare students for the job search. The Office of Career Services
serves as a liaison between students and employers. Current job openings are
posted regularly on the Job Information Center bulletin board in upper O-wing.
The Resume Expert Plus packet may be purchased by Wayne College students for
a nominal fee from the Office of Career Services. Resume Expert Plus is an IBMcompatible computer placement system which allows students to produce high
quality resumes and to register with the Office of Career Services. Wayne College students who are close to meeting graduation requirements are also eligible
to register with the Office of Placement Services at The University of Akron.

Computing Services
Learning Support Services
Wayne College affords students easy access to computers, laser printers, and
network services. There are more than a hundred computers housed in six
classrooms. These units are all linked through local area networks which allow
students to run the latest software as well as generate reports and documents
on laser printers.
The personnel in Learning Support Services provide free academic assistance to
help students become successful learners. The academic assistance provided
includes tutoring, computer tutorials, word processors, CD ROM tutorials, and
assistance to students with physical and learning disabilities. The goal of Learning
Support Services is to help students become independent learners so they can
succeed in college and in their careers.
Students can take advantage of the College's direct link to the University of
Akron by using Wayne College's computing facilities to tap into the University's
mainframe systems and its connection to the Internet. Students can take advantage of this Internet connection to pursue research and engage in collaborative efforts with other students and researchers world-wide.
Regardless of their major, all Wayne College students are welcomed and encouraged to use the College's computing facilities to do their homework, use
tutorial software, and make use of the network's communications capabilities.
A staff of full-time employees and student assistants are always on duty to
offer assista nee.
Financial Aid
Financial aid programs were developed by the federal and state governments as
well as by institutions of postsecondary education to assist students from families with limited resources to meet educational expenses. The primary purpose
of financial aid is to ensure that no one is denied the opportunity of a college
education because of financial need.
When applying for financial aid at The University of Akron's Wayne College, the
Office of Student Financial Aid determines a budget that best suits the needs of
the student. The budget includes direct costs that must be paid to the University (instructional and general fees) and variable expenses such as transportation and personal expenses.
Generally, financial aid is provided in three forms: gift aid, loans and work . It
is not unusual for a student to have all three forms of aid. This is called a
"financial aid package." If a person receives a proper financial aid package, it is
assumed that the family will not be expected to contribute more than is reasonable for a family member's education. The word "family" is crucial because the
financial aid system assumes that the family will work together to help a family
member meet college expenses.
All services are located in the Learning Center. Students may obtain academic
assistance in many subjects from a peer or a professional tutor, a computer
tutorial, or a video tape. All students can work on developing college-level
study skills and learn to retain what they read in their textbooks. Peer tutors,
who are students at Wayne College and/or the Akron campus, are hired for any
course requested by a student, subject to availability. The Center's director,
coordinators, and learning assistants will help students identify their academic
problems and use the Center's materials.
Students involved in writing projects for any course are encouraged to use the
Learning Center. Professional tutors will help students generate and develop
their ideas, assist with the organization of their material, and provide strategies
for proofreading their final drafts.

The University of Akron's Wayne College
Library
Services for Students with Disabilities
The library's mission to studentsis to provide access to all resources necessary
for successful completiOn of the1r Wayne College academic course work.
The University of Akron- Wayne .College provides special services to differently
abled students through the Learning Center. The services are individualized and
help students become more independent without separating them from the rest
of the college community. The Learning Center extends opportunities and provides support to students with physical and learning disabilities.
The library houses the college's 23,000 volume book collection; 350 current
periodical subscriptions (magazines, journals, and 14 newspapers); and several
hundred vertical file folders of pamphlets and newspaper clippings on topics of
general Interest.
Books are arranged according to the Library of Congress Classification system.
Periodicals (whether in microfiche or paper copy) are arranged alphabetically by
t1tle.
Books in the circulating collection may be checked out by students for four
weeks. Vertical files, college catalogs and periodicals (except the most recent
issue) may be checked out for one week.
The library has a good collection of standard reference works and traditional
print indexes to magazine and journal articles. The library is also a member of
OhioLINK, a growing network of university library catalogs, computerized periodical indexes and full-text informaton databases. This online resource provides easy access to material on a broad range of possible research topics.
Students are able to request books not in Wayne College's collection through
OhioLINK and may request copies of magazine or journal articles through interlibrary loan. These services are available at no charge.
In the event that audiovisual material needs to be viewed for a particular course,
a carousel slide viewer, a filmstrip viewer, and a VHS videotape viewer are
available in the library for student use.
When classes are in session, library hours are: 8:00a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (Fall semester), or 6:30 p.m.
(Spring semester) Friday; and 8:00a.m. to 4:00p.m. Saturday. Assistance in
using computer equipment or locating library materials is available from a member of the library staff during any hour of operation. The reference desk is
typically staffed Monday through Thursday until 8:00p.m.
In the library there are many study carrels, tables, and a reading lounge situated
near windows that overlook the college grounds. As part of its mission, the
Wayne College library strives to maintain an environment suitable for research.
Parking
Parking at Wayne College is free. However, certain regulations do exist. All
students are required to register their car(s) through the Student Services Office of the college. The resulting card file is used solely for the protection and
benefit of the student: for notification in the event of accidents, lights left on,
potential towing situations, etc.
Parking is prohibited on either side of the main driveway from the entrance to
the end, and in oval drive in front of the building. Also, no one is to park in such
a way as to obstruct the designed traffic flow. If these regulations are violated,
Wayne College reserves the right to ticket vehicles subject to fine and/or to
have the car towed at the individual's expense.
To obta.in special services, make an appointment with Dr. Julia Beyeler. A
d1agnos1s of the d1sab1hty must be provided to qualify for services. Services
designated by the diagnosis will be provided.
Serving the Adult Learner - The New Majority Student
Although many recent area high school graduates attend Wayne College about
half of the college's students are 25 years of age or older. Because ma~y have
been out of school for some time before undertaking, or returning to, collegiate
work, apprehension about returning to classes is not unusual.
The college's academic advisers are particularly sensitive to the special needs
of the returnmg adult learner, helping the student achieve the confidence that
comes with being informed. In addition, the college's 25 and Over Club, which
meets once a week, serves as a support group for such students. Topics of
special interest to the returning adult learner are featured each week. The
college's Learning Support Services provides tutoring and free workshops to
assist the student with college studies.
Starting College as an Older Student: What You Need to Know is a free program for the returning adult learner and is offered each semester and in the
summer. A follow-up series, Making the Transition, focuses on study skill
development, career planning, and adult learning styles. The Academic Survival Kit IA.S.K.), offered each summer, provides adults with additional preparation for college with sessions on writing, math and study skills. Information
on each of these programs is available in the Student Services Office of Wayne
College.
In addition, individuals 60 years of age or older are invited to enroll in any of
Wayne College's credit courses as auditors. An auditor is any student who
wishes to enroll in a course without obtaining a letter grade (A-F) or the designation CR or NC. An auditor is expected to do all the prescribed course work
except take examinations. Normally, fees for auditing a class are the same as
taking the class for a grade. However, persons 60 years of age or older may
register as auditors free of charge, if space permits. (See page 28 for further
definition of auditing.)

Student Identification Card
Veterans' Expenses

State Policy on Institutional Transfer
The Ohio Board of Regents, following the directive of the Ohio General Assembly,
has developed a new policy to facilitate movement of students and transfer credits from one Ohio public college or university to another. The purpose of the
policy is to avoid duplication of course requirements and to enhance student
mobility throughout Ohio's public higher education system. Students interested
in transferring to an independent college or university are encouraged to check
with the institution of their choice regarding transfer agreements.
The Ohio Board of Regents' new Transfer and Articulation Policy established the
Transfer Module, which is a specific subset or the entire set of a college or
university's general education requirements. The Transfer Module contains 5460 quarter hours or 36-40 semester hours of specified course work in English
composition, mathematics, fine arts, humanities, social and behavioral science,
natural and physical science, and interdisciplinary coursework.
A transfer module completed at one college or university will automatically meet
the requirements of the transfer module at the receiving institution, once the
student is accepted. Students may be required to meet additional general education requirements that are not included in the Transfer Module.
Students meeting the requirements of the Transfer Module are subject to the
following conditions:
• The policy encourages receiving institutions to give preferential consideration
for admissions to students who complete the Transfer Module and either the
A,ssociate of Arts or the Associate of Science degree. These students will be
able to transfer all courses in which they received a grade of D or better.
Students must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 to be given credit for
the Transfer Module.
• The policy also encourages receiving institutions to give preferential consideration for admission to students who complete the Transfer Module with a
grade of C or better in each course and 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours.
Students must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 to be given credit for
the Transfer Module and only courses in which a C or better was earned will
transfer.
• The policy encourages receiving institutions to admit on a non-preferential consideration basis students who complete the Transfer Module with a grade of C
or better in each course and less than 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours.
These students will be able to transfer all courses in which they received a
grade of C or better.
Admission to a given institution does not guarantee that a transfer student will be
automatically admitted to all majors, minors, or fields of concentration. Once
admitted, transfer students shall be subject to the same regulations governing
applicability of catalog requirements as all other students. Transfer students shall
be accorded the same class standing and other privileges as native students on
the basis of the number of credits earned. All residency requirements must be
successfully completed at the receiving institution prior to the granting of a degree.
In order to facilitate transfer with maximum applicability of transfer credits, prospective transfer students should plan a course of study that will meet the requirements of a degree program at the receiving institution. Additionally, students should determine if there are language requirements or any special course
requirements that can be met during the freshman or sophomore year. This will
enable students to plan and pursue a course of study that will articulate with the
receiving institution's program. Students are encouraged to seek further information regarding transfer from their academic adviser and the college or university to
which they plan to transfer.
A student disagreeing with the application of transfer credit by the receiving
institution shall be informed of the right to appeal the decision and the process for
filing the appeal. Each institution shall make available to students the appeal
process for that specific college or university.
If a transfer student's appeal is denied by the institution after all appeal levels
within the institution have been exhausted, the institution shall advise the student in writing of the availability and process of appeal to the state level Articulation and Transfer Appeals Review Committee. The Appeals Review Committee
shall review and recommend to institutions the resolution of individuals cases of
appeal from transfer students who have exhausted all local appeal mechanisms
concerning applicability of transfer credits at receiving institutions.

Residency Requirements
Course/Class Cancellations
Payment of the nonresident tuition surcharge is required by any student who does
not qualify as a permanent resident of Ohio as defined by one or more of the
sections as contained in the Ohio Board of Regents, 3333-1-10. Ohio Student
Residency For State Subsidy and Tuition Surcharge Purposes. The following
statement is an abbreviated version of this rule: If the student has not been living
in the state of Ohio for the past 1 2 months, qualification as a resident for tuition
purposes would not be granted.
Wayne College reserves the right to cancel any course previously announced due
to inadequate enrollment or other reasons deemed sufficient by the college, to
change the time of a scheduled course or section, to divide a class if enrollment is
too large or to change instructors at any time. The college reserves the right to
close registration in a course after the maximum enrollment has been reached in
order to assure high academic standards.
Specific exceptions to this rule do exist in the following categories: military
service, immigration visa status, dependent of a resident or employment within
Ohio.
Full explanations and residency application forms are available in the Student
Services Office of Wayne College or the Office of the University Registrar at The
University of Akron.
Only the dean of the college or his designate may cancel classes. In the event of
inclement weather conditions or other extenuating circumstances, the student
should listen to the following radio and/or television stations for information about
class cancellations: WAKR (AM 1590), WHBC (AM 1480, FM 94.1 ), WHLO (AM
640), WKDD (FM 96.5), WKVX (AM 960), WNCO (AM 1340, FM 101.3), WOMX
(FM 94.9), or WOKT (FM 104.5). Alternatively, you can call the University's
Emergency Information Phone Line (972-SNOW) or Wayne College's Snowline
(684-8775) for weather related or emergency information. If due to illness or
other extenuating circumstances, a faculty member is not able to meet with the
class, an effort is usually made to notify the student.
The closing of the Akron campus does not mean that classes at Wayne College
are canceled. The dean of Wayne College makes a separate determination and
decision. Courses offered at off-campus locations adhere to the calendars of the
host institutions. A student attending classes at the Medina County Vocational
Center should listen to WOMX (FM 94.9) to find out if the center has been closed
due to inclement weather or other reasons. Cancellation of classes at The University of Akron and/or Wayne College due to inclement weather or other reasons
does not mean that classes are canceled at off-campus sites.
Summer Sessions
Wayne College offers both day and evening classes during the summer months.
Summer study satisfies a variety of student appetites and needs: a college student wanting an accelerated academic program, a recent high school graduate, a
guest student from another institution of higher education, an older person with
lifelong learning interests, a part-time student and those who can rejuvenate intellectual energies in summer study only. Though of shorter duration, course offerings during the summer are of comparable quality and content to those given
during the regular academic year, but are neither as numerous nor as varied.
